It's a shame we'll never get a film about the adventures of Gimli and Legolas post RotK. I guess it would probably be generic schlock anyway.

How did Gimli know what a nervous system was?

>>84986279
Serious questions:
Why was pipeweed portrayed as marijuana rather than tobacco, which it canonically is?
Why was Gimli portrayed as comic relief when the Dwarves are a serious race and Gimli was a deadly serious character?
Why did Legolas use shields as snow/skateboards when that is anachronistic and also just plain annoying?
Why were the books gutted, making an action movie for 15-25 year olds, reducing to nothing the aesthetic and philosophical significance of this work?

Not that pic relates.
Today was shit, and this is a poor excuse for a LOTR thread.
